Creativity
Wilhelm Label is one of the most famous realist artists in Germany. His paintings, written in Upper Bavaria, have nothing to do with the idyll or joy of the narrative and depict a man without embellishment. His painting, rich in details, after 1890 approaches Impressionism , however, it preserves the closed materiality of images. In his paintings, the label for the most part depicted people.
